2.5G is definitely excessive.


Not sure how it represents text, but if it's using UTF-16 (I'm on Windows), then that's 900MB just there given the ASCII input file.

Not gonna say it's lightweight, but not excessive in my book.


Not optimized, perhaps, but not unreasonable given the metadata over a nearly-500MB file I would think?
